If you have a company phone number and get incoming calls from prospects (if you don't have one, Quicktalk provides services for getting a business phone number), you must quickly respond their inquiry while their interest is still high.
Two of the more critical stages of the sales motion, discovery and qualification, determine which leads are warm and which prospects are worth your sales team’s time and effort. Without completing these stages, sales reps risk wasting valuable time pursuing leads that don’t see the value in their pitch. By doing upfront research and asking the right questions, these stages can move quickly and provide significant insights for the rep later in the funnel.
Once determined that a prospect is worth the time, sales reps must learn to use the most efficient communication strategies to accomplish their sales goals. Using personality and behavioral predictions to communicate most appropriately can make a huge difference in response rates, engagement, and success.
Using Crystal is easy-- once you open a sales contact, Crystal’s Personality AI will analyze their profile or text sample and determine their personality type. Once their personality type is determined, you will be able to access valuable tips for the discovery and qualification stages, such as booking a meeting, making pitches/presentations, building a rapport, pacing, and more.
